The Considerate dictatorship of Eastern Tatarstan is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Nurlan Tänirbergen with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 17.553 billion Eastern Tatars enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Azattik. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Eastern Tatar economy, worth a remarkable 1,818 trillion Altans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an impressive 103,616 Altans, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 363,564 per year while the poor average 21,422, a ratio of 17.0 to 1.

Island residents must resort to canoes and sailboats to get to work, there's no weight to modern politics, reporters often lose their jobs over fact-checking errors, and scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied hamster 'n' horse. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Eastern Tatarstan's national animal is the hamster 'n' horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Tengri.

Eastern Tatarstan is ranked 105,593^rd in the world and 1^st in Altay for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,151.1 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
